LFile::EnumTags

#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_INT LFile::EnumTags(uFlags, pLoadOptions)

Enumerates all the tags in a file. Currently, only TIFF and Exif files contain tags.

Parameters

L_UINT uFlags

Flags parameter. Reserved for future use. Pass 0.

pLOADFILEOPTION pLoadOptions

Pointer to optional extended load options. Pass NULL to use the default load options.

Returns

Value Meaning
SUCCESS The function was successful.
< 1 An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

For multipage TIFF files, you can enumerate the tags from a particular page. Specify the page number on which to enumerate the tags using the pLoadOptions structure. For more information, refer to the LOADFILEOPTION structure.

This function enumerates the standard TIFF tags and the user tags. Standard TIFF tags are less than 32767. User TIFF tags are usually between 32768 and 65535.

To read a tag value, call LFile::ReadTag.

Note that if LFile::EnumTagsCallBack returns a value other than SUCCESS, LFile::EnumTags will stop enumerating the tags and return the value returned by LFile::EnumTagsCallBack as its return value.

Do not attempt to use the LFile::DeleteTag function to delete tags from inside an LFile::EnumTagsCallback callback function. If you want to delete tags that you enumerate, use LFile::EnumTagsCallback to add the tags to a list. Upon returning from LFile::EnumTags, you can delete all the tags from the list.
